बालम रे याद करो वो बात

'Balam Re Yaad Karo Woh Baat' is a song from Aankh Michouli (1942) with lyrics by Pandit Indra; its singer is not documented in available sources. The address to the beloved ('balam') to remember a shared moment marks it as a song of romantic recollection and yearning, a familiar register of the film's softer interludes.

Gyan Dutt sets such recollection songs in a slow, tender register — a sustained, longing melody over soft harmonium and a gently brushed rhythm, the kind of restrained ballad mood with which his Amar Pictures scores balanced the lighter playful numbers.
